Admission Procedures

The Admission Department is the patient's first stop when they enter the  medical center. Patients will be requested to present their doctor's admission order sheet.
  • In the absence of the doctor's admission order sheet or a doctor known to them, a walk-in patient may be admitted through the Emergency Room.
  • Fill out a Patient Information Sheet. Information requested will be needed by the attending physician and the medical center.
  • Indicate the accommodation of choice (suite, private room, semi-private - 2 patients per room, or ward - 4 to 6 patients per room).
  • Sign consent forms for hospital care, exclusive supply of medicines, limitation on outside diagnostic reports, release of information to insurance companies and/or patient's employer, and waiver of responsibility on loss of valuables.
While your admission is being processed and your room is being prepared, you will be asked to wait in the Admission Waiting Lounge. As soon as the room is ready, patients will be escorted to the Nursing Unit by the admission aide. All patients are given an ID band to be worn around the wrist for the duration of their stay at the medical center.

Emergency Admissions
Patients are referred to the Emergency Room (ER) if they do not have an admission order sheet from their attending physician. In such cases, the ER consultant will ask the patient for the name of  their physician. The ER consultant may only assign an attending physician to their case if they do not have a personal physician of choice.

Reservation Procedures
The Admission Department accepts room reservations. However, if the patient fails to arrive within the indicated time of arrival, the room reservation shall be assigned to other patients. The hospital also reserves the right to cancel reservations to give way to emergency and critical cases.
